Default Bounty paid! Looking for a specific configuration Chevrolet/GMC 8.1L truck:

MUST haves:
2003-2007
8.1L Gas engine
Allison Automatic transmission
4x4/4WD
SRW/single rear wheel
Extended cab
Long bed
Less than 125,000 miles
No rust top or bottom
Steering wheel radio controls
Bucket front seats with full center console (not 40/20/40 bench)
LT or SLT interior trim (I might settle for LS/SLE trim for the right truck, but do not want a stripped/work model.)
Looking for a stock, or nearly stock truck. No massive lifts or crazy customs.
Anything but Pewter as far as color. (I don't know why GM painted so many vehicles that color, worst shade ever.)
The above truck should sell for between 12,000 and 19,000 pending condition.
I don't care about axle ratio as long as they both match.

I'll pay a nice bounty to anyone who helps me find one.

I already have a truck like the above described, but it has 200,000 miles on it and a dent in the door. It's well used, but I love the truck.
I love it so much, I am looking for a 'younger' one to make a daily driver out of.

I don't want a crew cab, as I already have a crew cab dually for long haul/heavy towing. I don't want a daily driver that is 22' long; nor do I want/need another dually. The only thing I need the extended cab for is for clean inside storage.
I don't want a short bed as I want to fit my golf cart or Harley in the bed of the truck with the tailgate closed; or maybe a UTV one day. I know they made the truck in 2001 & 2002, but the interior wasn't as nice, and many of the engine sensors are no longer available from GM; hence only want 2003 and newer,

Thanks in advance.

When I read this I thought, seems like I just saw a truck exactly like you described for sale, but it was this one and it's a 4 door.

Thank you very much guys. I've seen all of those. I've spent about 5 hours a week searching all of the Craigslist country wide tools, AutoTrader, eBay, Cars.com, etc. etc; for the past 3-4 weeks.

I am also aware of Brian Orlandi's truck for sale (early model, dually, CC), but it's just not what I am looking for. I considered it though.

I've been dorking around with this guy in the DC area for 6 weeks that is supposedly brokering a 2003 with 90K miles for a friend of his, but I've given up on waiting for him. I am planning at least one road trip this winter with the Harley and camper, and I want to have this truck soon so I can get it dialed in. I could take my PSD dually, but it's overkill.

Man you are a picky ba$tard! I can't help you out around here as you stated you wanted no rust and 90% of the Chevys around here those years are rusted.

I bet someone here would like this:

2000 Chevy K3500 LS

Tan, 4X4, 454 motor, automatic transmission, crew cab, long bed, 4 inch trailmaster lift w/BF Goodrich 33" tires, Rhino liner, 93,000 miles. Absolutely no rust anywhere, well taken care of, a must see! 12,900.00

Or this:

1996 GMC Dually Crew Cab

1996 Red GMC Dually. 454 V8. Runs and drives good. Used for pulling my camper. Has a tool box, newer nerf bars and bed caps. Good tread on tires. Need to sell soon. $5,900 open to offers. Pics available.

Both of these trucks are in my work's online ads. If anyone is interested I can PM contact info.

Stumbled on this which I have never seen custom built before:
http://phoenix.craigslist.org/cph/cto/4744770795.html

GM has not built a shortbed dually since the mid-90s.

For the guy who absolutely has to have a crewcab dually, but only wants to haul 2 suitcases and a 6 pack cooler in the bed of his truck:

He probably can find you one on OVE.
